Indian Super League side Bengaluru FC have announced a one-year deal with cryptocurrency exchange brand ZebPay. The deal will see ZebPay become the Official Crypto-Exchange Partner of the Bengaluru franchise.

We’re looking forward to seeing this association grow over the course of the season.”
Avinash Shekhar, Co-CEO, ZebPay, added:
“This partnership with Bengaluru FC enables us to educate sports enthusiasts of the world about the value of crypto. India’s affinity to football has been steadily rising in the past few years, and we are hoping to educate and create awareness about crypto amongst Indian sports enthusiasts. We extend our best wishes to members of Bengaluru FC and will be cheering for the team from the sidelines while bringing crypto to the mainstream.”
